Blackbelt 2: Fatal Force

Tent camping is one of the more popular styles of camping. It does not require renting a camping trailer, an RV and the extra expenses like gas which will be more expensive also. Those who choose not to purchase or rent an RV can still enjoy camping just as those who do, which is why tent camping remains so popular. Whether you are camping in the Alps or Yosemite, camping can be a wonderful adventure.

Camping sites often offer amenities specific for tent campers since it is such a popular way to camp. Of course, these campgrounds have upgraded the RV amenities but still have plenty of amenities and space for tent campers. For those of you planning a tent camping trip in the near future, here is some information you may find useful to prepare yourself as far as what to expect.

If you are tent camping at a site with amenities, you should be able to expect public restrooms with toilet paper as well as public showers. The shower facilities may not be the most comfortable but they are adequate to get you cleaned up for the day. Since the camping spaces are rented, you can feel free to spark a campfire, cook and lounge around and relax.

You may also find amenities such as swimming pools, vending machines, local activity centers and hiking trails. As you see, with these types of amenities available, tent camping does not have to be as "rough" as some think roughing it is.

When you think of tent camping, you may not immediately think of the beach. But, the beach can be a great place for a camping trip. All you really need for the daytime is a tent, a towel, some shorts and a swimming suit. Of course, you may want to bring along some food which is one very good reason to bring along a tent when camping at the beach. A tent can help keep your food clean from the windy sand or weather conditions.

Finally, the woods can be an exciting and adventurous choice of tent camping but it can also be dangerous. If you opt for camping in the woods, be sure you are familiar with the area you intend on camping. Otherwise, you increase your chance of becoming lost which is something that can kill people more often than you may be aware of. Also, though you may find some great hills or mountains along the way, an attempt at climbing them should be reserved for the experienced climber or at least with an experienced climber. In general, while taking the proper precautions, tent camping in a wooded area can be a fantastic adventure!
